Guide Note: This is the travel page for Amsterdam Vacation.

Rich in culture, entertainment, history and romance, Amsterdam has been called "Venice of the North," well-known for its museums, such as Rijksmuseum, Rembrandt House Museum and the Van Gogh Museum, which holds the worlds largest collection of Vincent van Gogh paintings. Perhaps Amsterdam is most notorious for its red districts, where liberal coffeeshops legally sell marijuana and prostitution is legal. The government has recently begun a campaign to clean up those areas, and some question whether the liberal attitudes toward these activities are on the wane.
